In memory of the first Russian scientist (1711 – 1911)

The article below was written by Petr Nikolaevich Lebedev in 1911 to mark the bicentenary year of the birth of Mikhail Vasil’evich Lomonosov. P N Lebedev’s words about the sad fate of Russian science and Russian scientists (as exemplified by M V Lomonosov) unfortunately remain true in many respects today.
